U.S. Administration pay 14 million for two new border guards!
The Trump administration paid a private company $13.6 million to recruit thousands of Border Patrol agents, and they've hired 2 so far
Customs and Border Protection awarded Accenture $297 million to hire more agents, but a watchdog says after $13.6 million, just 2 officers were hired.

Feels like that watchdog is full of bias and even lies.
If you bring in a heavy hitter like Accenture, that probably conducted a current state assessment including geography, massive amounts of data collection and analysis, and assisted them with developing a target state. Once you get sign off on target state and have an understanding of the current state, then you can commence a staffing strategy that gets you to the staffing portion of the target state. If they just started hiring, those are FTEs but the costs for doing the analyses are probably all Accenture employees and consultants to do the first part of the contract.
Accenture is expensive as hell. They are part of the global "big four" consulting firms. Defrauding the government is certainly not part of a good marketing strategy to stay competitive with their peers who are more than happy to take over their contracts.
CBP agreed to evaluate Accenture's performance. The article is written to make it seem like they are being considered for termination and litigation. Here's the problem with that CBP statement: it's a bullshit response. They are always under performance review. It's going to be built into the Statement of Work including performance reviews and reporting periods.

Interesting points, but did you know a watchdog says otherwise?!
